2018 Chablis 1er Cru Montée de Tonnerre, William Fèvre

Over two hectares in three different terroirs here. Some for tension at the top of hill, some in Chapelot for richness and power, and a west-facing 1936 planting that’s very mineral. Very pure and elegant, most precise wine in the cellar. Crushed rocks and oyster shell, and a touch of gunflint. Palate is so savoury and almost unforgiving, lip-tingling salinity and amazing purity on the finish. One for the purists.
